I recently bought a Mercedes C280 on June 22. My father traveled from Atlanta, Georgia, my state of residence, to Fort Lauderdale, Florida to pick up the car. However, once he drove the vehicle about 100 miles, the transmission was not reversing nor were the rear windows functioning properly. The ad placed on Ebay by FineCarsUSA specifically stated that the car was in perfect condition, and if the car was not to satisfaction, then they would reimburse the total amount of the car and the airfare as well.
Moreover, right before the test drive, the dealer David stated that everything was in perfect condition. My father test drove the car with a man named Marty who then replied that my father was not allowed to bring the car back even after reporting of its problems. Marty and David, both own Fine Car USA, had a man named Mike, a mechanic, call my father. Mike stated that my father would have to pay for the parts and labor for the transmission and window. At this point in time, no one responded at the dealership nor will they reimburse for my money and expenses incurred.in fact, the dealership stated, "Don't come back"-Marty and David.
My father (70 yrs old) was greatly distressed and had no means of transportation. At this point, I wasn't concerned about the $5,200 I lost but wanted to get my father back ASAP. The dealership's number is 954-641-0100. Hope this incident helps from avoiding cheap dealerships like Fine Car USA.
